It’s hard for me to believe how quickly this semester has gone by. I know people always say that…but if you are the type of person who likes to stay busy, it really holds true. So, now it is time to think about potentially late dropping a class (before April 11th), summer plans, scheduling, subletting your apartment, getting everything out of your dorm, internship or job transitions, grad school decisions, exams, papers, etc. We each have our own story of what will occur over the next few weeks and on into the summer.
Yes there is a lot going on, and yes you will likely get stressed and pull at least one long study night. However, I have always found that all of that balances out when I can have something to look forward to. For example, I have a huge test coming up on Wednesday, which I will put hours into studying for and reading over the chapters, so that I can retain every ounce of information possible. But through all of that, I can look forward to Saturday when I will go out to dinner with a bunch of my friends. Sure this doesn’t sound like much, but I promise you that having something to look forward to (no matter how small) invites more positive energy and spirits, making studying and the long list of 20+ things that need to get done before tomorrow manageable.
